Dellicott Family History

Dellicott Surname Meaning

from Dallicote in Claverley (Shrops) recorded as Dalicot' in 1261-2 and Dallicott in 1617 perhaps a compound of the Old English personal names Dealla or Dealing + Old English cot ‘cottage’. Compare Daley.

alternatively perhaps an altered form of Derricott (see Darracott) with substitution of /l/ for /r/ as apparently illustrated in Julia Derricott 1876 in IGI (Tipton Staffs) and Joseph Dellicott in Census 1881 (Tipton Staffs).

However it is also possible that Derricott is a pronunciation of Dellicott from the name in (i).
